Chapter 920: Chaotic Year 11
"If you’re free then, I’ll go with you," He Teng replied. Watching He Zhilan wrap her arm around his, he gently patted the back of her hand, "Be good and wait for me at home, don’t go running around causing trouble."
He Zhilan’s eyelids lifted and her hand immediately let go, and she muttered discontentedly, "Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? Hurry and go!"
"Hehe~" He Teng, too, was amused by He Zhilan’s childish behavior. While putting on his military coat and chuckling with shaking shoulders, he reminded her of a few things before finally shutting the door and leaving.
After He Teng left, the whole house quieted down. Since they were discussing S Province affairs before, He Zhilan’s mind was still on what happened in S Province.
She originally thought that with the intervention of the Gu Family, the matter concerning Gu En would have come to an end. Little did she expect that it had simply gone from the open to the shadows.
However, upon reflection, that made sense, Xing Ye would not let go of Gu En so easily, nor would He Teng and the local military force let Niu Rang’s sacrifice be in vain.
Even if they temporarily lack evidence to prove Gu En’s guilt, everyone was clear in their hearts that Niu Rang’s death was related to Gu En.
In fact, thinking about the incidents that occurred in S Province, the night Niu Rang sacrificed himself, He Zhilan’s place was burgled, and a replica toy gun was stolen. The toy gun must have been taken by people sent by Gu En and Lan Song. That they did not come back for He Zhilan could mean two things.
